> actively censoring

OpenAI is ethically the type of company that will censor. But this single example doesn't outright support a hypothesis of malice.

There may be non-malicious reasons as well. If the interface you're using does not include search engine results, the answer seems reasonable and non-malicious. Or if search engines are giving conflicting information or showing only shady sources, the answer seems reasonable.

Maybe try to find some pattern in answers to diverse questions about US elections and parties.
